He did not say the people of osun won. He said "he won".

You sabi those people. They will eat shiite and tell you it is delicious.

Atiku must be careful of the past.

MadPolitician:
I prefer Ariku to Obasanjo..
Atleast you know where Atiku stands.
There is nothing politically spectacular about Obasanjos administrative skills.
Dude was below par.
In terms of his political pursuits, his tenures witnessed an alarmingly high increase in all sorts of extra judicial murders and plane crashes involving big names; Harry Marahal, Dokubo, Ige etc..
Crude violence was a permanent feature..

Forget all that whitewashing by the mercenary Lagos Ibadan expressway compromised press houses, who crowned the inept bully as the father of modern Nigeria. Obasanjo was a placid administrator who spends most of his time chasing real and Imagined political enemies..

Lately, Peter Obi has been trying to portray Obasanjo as a detribalised Nigerian and I think that is gross. Obasanjo was in on the arrangement that led to the sidelining of the South East in the scheme.of things post 1999. He had all sorts of "good friends" in the SE, but when it was time to find a deputy for Yardua, dude went for one unknown ijaw quantity. Now he wants to make Obi the president?

Just another consumate court jester from the Southwest

Anonimi. Remember my post about recency bias?
Obj was not different from baba. Both tainted the office of the president with their rascality.

anonimi:
He is indeed a victim of misinformation but has to up his own game of counter-insurgency of spotters who can identify and quickly put out propaganda lies.

Around November 2002, 15 of the 21 Governors from the PDP including me, had an ad hoc meeting at my lodge in Abuja to decide who should be nominated by the Governors Committee for election by PDP as the presidential nominee for the 2003 Election.

The Governors Committee decided almost unanimously to get a new candidate instead of President Obasanjo as the Committee was of the view that because of his military background, he was intolerant of dissent and had displayed very dictatorial and vindictive tendencies against those he perceived to be independent-minded and disloyal to him.

Immediately after the Governors meeting, I led the delegation of Governors to meet the then PDP Chairman, Chief Audu Ogbeh, at his residence around 2 am.

As the leader of the delegation, I spoke and communicated the views of the Governors to the Chairman, which was that the Governors had decided not to support President Obasanjo as PDPs nominee for the 2003 General Election.

The party chairman tried to persuade us to review our decision but when he saw our resolve, he told us that he would inform the President. I was later informed by Chief Audu Ogbeh that after we left his house he put an urgent call to the President and informed him of our decision.

What then followed were intense consultations before the PDP annual convention which took place in January 2003. Two days before the party convention, the Governors had a breakfast meeting with President Obasanjo.

I recall that at that meeting, the then Vice President Alhaji Abubakar Atiku told the President in the presence of the Governors that he was known to be very dictatorial, vindictive and unforgiving. The President appealed to the Governors to support him and assured both the Governors and the party leadership that if he was allowed to continue for the second term, he would adopt a more democratic approach.

On the basis of the President's assurance, given at that breakfast meeting, I led the move for the Governors to support his presidential nomination for the second term. However, notwithstanding my support for President Obasanjo's nomination for a second term, the President after the nomination, acted very shabbily towards me.

When I met him soon after the convention, he told me that he had learned that I had put forward the view that he was unsellable, unmarketable and unelectable. He then vowed that he was going to make sure that I was unsellable, unmarketable and unelectable.

According to Adesanya, Atiku met the governors the first day of the convention; they urged him to leave Obasanjo and seek the nomination himself. Atiku demurred; he also deflected the suggestion that he join Ekwueme. Finally, Atiku arranged a meeting between Obasanjo and the now irate governors. The governors railed that Obasanjo was hypocritically pursuing them for corruption, while turning a blind eye to corrupt politicians within his own Administration. Atiku supported the governor's position, telling Obasanjo that significant corruption was not the exclusive ambit of the governors and that serious transgressions occurred in the executive branch: he said it would be unjust to focus exclusively on gubernatorial excesses. Assuming the role of mediator, Atiku then asked both sides to affirm their mutual support and cease the antagonism being fueled by elements that wanted to destroy the PDP. The governors agreed to bury the hatchet, if Obasanjo would shelve the dossiers. Having demonstrated his influence with the governors, Atiku continued to play coy with Obasanjo.

In the end, Atiku extracted an extraordinary concession from the President. Obasanjo agreed to relinquish the entire domestic agenda to Atiku, including the appointment of key economic policy-makers. Since Obasanjo focused on the world arena during his first term and aspired for recognition as an international statesman, Atiku said that is where he would like Obasanjo's attentions to remain. Obasanjo would serve the role of a "super Foreign Minister" and ceremonial Head of State. As Adesanya understood the agreement, Atiku would be allowed to direct domestic economic policy while Obasanjo busied himself with debt relief, NEPAD, conflict resolution and other measures to shore up Nigeria's image abroad.

The President was dazed, Abayomi recalled. Jarred by the unexpected possibility of defeat, the usually know-it-all Obasanjo eagerly solicited counsel on how to escape the closing vise. Early that day, the dominant theme was to seek a court injunction postponing the convention. Proponents suggested the delay to afford Obasanjo time to marshal support and undermine Ekwueme's momentum. However, this idea was ultimately discarded, partially because of apprehension over the public's reaction. More importantly, the push for an injunction became less urgent when the President's advisors began to sense their man was regaining ground by the hour.

The President owed much of his recovery to his own tenacity and, at times, shamelessness. He pulled out virtually all the stops to clinch the nomination, according to Abayomi. For most of that day, the President's diet consisted of liberal portions of humble pie. The President pleaded and cajoled; on at least two occasions his eyes welled with emotion as he pursued fence-sitting delegates and governors. However, Obasanjo saved his best to keep Vice President Atiku from defecting.

With rumor swirling that Atiku would opt to run with Ekwueme, Obasanjo wasted no time visiting the Vice President's residence. Obasanjo begged, declaring he would not leave Atiku's home unless the Vice President accompanied him to win back the delegates and governors. The performance had the desired effect. Atiku joined Obasanjo in publicly lobbying the conventioneers. While it might not have been Obasanjo's finest hour it was the defining moment of the convention. What had been a suspenseful contest would now turn into a rout.

Recency bias has made us forget how OBJ handled the country. He was a bully to almost everyone.

Asides the allegations in the press, Atiku has always been scandal free, and a gentleman.

AMINDA:
And yet, he repaid you with treachery and betrayal. Just like Tinubu and Elrufai.

Perhaps it is in their DNA

Atiku might be a victim of misinformation.

So yesterday was a script. The entire osun in the bag for baba. And you have lost the moral capacity to call him a dictator. You have also lost the right to accuse INEC of impartiality.

Baba truly play 4D chess.

Mindlog:
Like I posted earlier, APC is not invisible.

By the way, PDP once thought they were.

Baba is not PDP.
Baba plays 4D chess.

Mindlog:
Tinubu and APC losing Osun despite Federal might, is a proof they are not invisible.

Don't get your hopes high.
If you play chess, there are times you sacrifice a pawn, Bishop or rook to capture the queen or checkmate the king.

Sowore keep showing his lack of class and inability to handle issues respectfully.

Whether Peter obi is acting or not, he has shown he has the energy to go anywhere In the country at the shortest time.

Nigeria need a president sympathetic to the common man.

My respect for zik increased greatly under this administration.
He should be applauded for keeping them in opposition for 50 years.

What about your brothers, sons and obas who attacked igbos at the elections because of this man?

Oga talk another thing or put that saxophone back in your mouth.

You ignored your people that worship a man stealing their taxes instead of fighting and taking it back.

The fact he passed mathematics and failed simple subjects like commerce and c.r.k makes the result very suspicious.

Ancestor was a human like me, why should I honor him? Do I know him? Do I owe him?

Svoboda:
Okpebholo knows that shoe get size. Where was he in 2003 when Peter Obi was challenging his stolen mandate in court? As at 2014, exactly 12 years ago, Peter Obi had run his full course as governor. Perhaps at that time, Okpebholo was still learning tens and units.
Unfortunately, he didn't learn very well, which made it almost impossible for him to recite figures during his budget presentation.

Okpebolo wrote waec in 2008, he was 36 years at that time.
